πŸ“…: Oct. 11th 4-9pm | Oct. 12th 12-7 pm 
🎟️: Free entrance 
πŸš—: Lots of parking and free! 

First time at ube fest and this will now be a yearly visit for me! It was just as packed as these popular food festivals. I suggest going when they open or before dinner to avoid really long lines! After we ordered food we waited in another without wasting time. 

Everything I ate was actually a 10/10 and recommend to try these booth out at ube fest πŸ˜‹. I’ve had the burger ghoul before when they had a pop up and the longanisa breakfast sandwich is a must try! Really liked tatay ry’s bbq but wish it was on a bigger plate bc it was pretty packed for how much we got πŸ˜…. D baker’s lab by anj was so good it had me wishing they had an actual cafe open to come back to :’). Lastly, bread and butter is based in Fresno but they’re here for ube fest and I wish they had a shop here too! All their breads were amazinggg. A few that were my faves and haven’t had before was the ube pandan rolls and pan de coco!

✨ Tips: Have poses ready (my bf and I did 2 different strips with the same poses bc I knew I was going to cut one up for the keychain), come early before they open if you can (went during opening and waited in line outside but wasn’t too long; not sure how it is during the day)

πŸš™ Parking: Free! They have a small back parking lot, I’m not sure where else you can park if it’s full πŸ˜…. 

πŸ’²Each photo strip is $7.50 and comes with one. 
- If you’re doing a keychain they offer to make a digital copy before you cut it when making your keychain
- $10 / keychain which includes 1 pendant

Come celebrate Ube Fest’s 5th year at the Cerritos Center and it’s going to be one of their biggest ones yet! Their last event was Mango Fest, but now they’ll be having both this weekend πŸ₯­! We always like to try new vendors and my favorite was @cafe949 :p. We got the lobster rolls and fish balls and they were both really good and I neeeed to try more of their menu items. They’ll also be at the OC Japan Fair (10/16-18) if you can’t catch them this weekend! If you’re looking for sisig, I recommend @socal_sisig as I mentioned in the last video it’s a must! @ensaymadaproject I’ve had before at Malaya Coffee in Silverlake so I came back to try more flavors :) (if you were wondering, the flavor is not filled) 

Just a few highlights but everything was amazing 🀩 . Make sure to check out my other videos to see what other vendors might be there and offer 😊. Lots of vendors to also shop at with live DJ πŸ›οΈ

Always a good time at Ube Fest, but now they’re celebrating their 5th year at the Cerritos Center and it’s going to be one of their biggest ones yet! Their last event was Mango Fest, but now they’ll be having both this weekend πŸ₯­! I tried mostly new vendors this time and one that stood out to me was @frylipino because I love their crispy fries and the seasonings but also haven’t seen them at other events before :p. We always almost go back to @socal_sisig because of the portion & one of the best I’ve had! Another one we love and had to go back to was @senyorluisdemalabon.usa for their lychill lychee drink it’s honestly super refreshing and not overly sweet! 

Just a few highlights but everything was amazing 🀩 . Make sure to check out my other videos to see what other vendors might be there and offer 😊. Lots of vendors to also shop at with live DJ πŸ›οΈ

MUST-TRY NEW CAFE IN SD 

πŸ“ Cafe Noelle | Little Italy SD, CA

This is a sister cafe of Cafe Alessie (downtown)! I love that cafe & come whenever I visit SD, so I had to try their new second one! πŸ’™

Follow @janelleatsocal for more foodie finds, things to do, and matcha reviews !β‹†ΰ±¨ΰ§ŽΛšβŸ‘Λ–

I always have to get a food menu item to pair with their matchas & it’s always hard to choose which one because they all sound so good πŸ˜…. There’s also plenty of seating space but located outside :). I love that their syrups are made in house which makes them so much better in my opinion! Make sure to save this cafe for your next visit in the area bc Cafe Noelle & Cafe Alessie are on my go to matcha list in SD πŸ’šπŸ’™ @cafealessie @cafenoelle_ 

πŸš—: Park in the garage & they validate 

πŸͺ What we ordered: 
- whipped cookie butter butter matcha 
- banana pudding matcha 
- marry me avo toast 
- smoked salmon toast 

πŸ’Œ Thank you for having me!

Highly rated Afghan restaurant in Downey! 

πŸ“ Afghan Kabob House | Downey, CA 

First time trying Afghan food :o. The family platter was more than enough for me and my family πŸ˜…. We also got full unexpectedly fast so I’d say the dishes are pretty filling. We got the family platter, but if you were to order specific dishes, I would recommend the karahi chicken, bolani, and kabobs! 

Follow @janelleatsocal for more foodie finds, things to do, and matcha reviews !β‹†ΰ±¨ΰ§ŽΛšβŸ‘Λ–

πŸ— What we ordered: the family platter
- bolani (potato or leek flatbread)
- mantu (beef dumplings w/ lentil tomato sauce) 
- karahi (chicken w/ blend of spices) 
- borani banjan (fried eggplant) 
- side of bread 
- platter: chicken, beef, and lamb kabobs
πŸ₯­ Drinks:
